Because of this heavy tailed distribution of interventions
Is it actually heavy-tailed? It looks like an ordered bar chart, not a histogram, so it’s hard to tell what the tails are like.

  ~~What do you mean? It looks like a histogram to me~~
  Oh nevermind, I see what you mean, indeed the y axis seems to indicate the intervention, not the number of interventions. Still, wouldn’t a histogram be very similar?
